H e wus waiting to see tbe attorney who was the employer o f the operator, and when the attorney final, ly entered the visitor did not observe his approach. “ Hello,” exclaimed the proprietor of the office, “ what are you looklug at my typewriter so absorbingly for? Have you been dreaming that he was a lovely maiden iu disguise, or some other fairy story like that?” "N o,” replied the visitor, ” 1 was just tryiug to realize how difficult a feat I saw a man perform yesterday, down at one o f the hotels, where there Is oue of the fastest operators In town.” "W hat did he do? Jump a board bill?” “ No, that's easy. What he did was different. A man who was with hint had some sort o f trade on, 1 don't know what, but Just before they proceeded to conclude it, the other man said he wanted to w rite a letter to his partner In Chicago. He had It already draft ed in pencil, and he took it over to the far side of the writing room and hand ed it to the «iterator, saying to he csre- ful, us It was very Important, and to get It done at once. Then he joined the other man. but before they began talking a third party called the first man aside for a short talk. As these two talked, the operator at the machine clicked at the letter, and the man who was waiting for some reason, watched the operator very closely as her fingers flew over the keys. “ The letter was finished at least three minutes before the talk was, and when that was done the operator handed the man the letter in an envelope duly uddressed and went back to her ma chine. The man put the letter in his IMK-ket just as It was handed to him. " 'I hope you will ixirdon me,’ lie said, turning to the waiting man, 'for so much delay, hut It was unavoidable. However. I'm ready now to close with you at the prices named.’ “ ‘And I'd see you hanged before I ’d sell to you at any price.’ said the other man in a suppressed tone, greatly to the surpriRe o f the man with the letter in his pocket. “ In another minute there would have been a fight on. but I rushed in, us did another party, and in the excitement the man with the letter got aw ay and disappeared. In response to our In quiries as to what It was all about, the man told us that he hnd made a study of training the e.ve to quickness, and that he practiced It whenever he saw a typewriter at work. He had so per- feeted himself In it that he could fo l low the fingers o f the fastest operator, and he could read whatever he might happen to be writing. In this case he had done the same without thought, because the man with whom he had the trade on was engaged for the mo ment. Before he had rend five lines of the letter, however, he discovered that the man was making arrangements with his partner in Chicago to swindle him out o f $5,000. It was a cold-blood ed cose o f steal, nnd the wonder to him was that he hadn't hit the scoundrel first and told hint why afterward. "Th at was all there was to It,” con cluded the visitor, “ except thnt we tested him and found he could do what he said, and now, If you don’t think It is a difficult feat, you watch your op erator as she flies along some time at sixty words a minute, and see If you can rend the letters her fingers dance among."—Washington Star.
